In this case, the Default Reader option will have no effect. - Click Default Reader to set the currently selected device as the default encoder. This setting is indicated by a check mark next to the device in the Default Encoder column.

If more than one device has been defined, but none of them has been set as the default reader or encoder, then you will be prompted to select the required device when encoding or reading cards to which a default device has been assigned. A selection menu with the available devices will appear, allowing you to choose the device you wish to use for reading or encoding on a case by case basis. |
